Why not just File.getParent/File.getPar<wbr />entFile?

Why not just File.getParent/File.getParentFile?

<div>
because there is one line above:<br />

<pre><code id="code-20-40285425-1">   String newname = simpleDateFormat.format(date)+ anotherFile.getName();</code></pre>
</div>


because there is one line above:


   String newname = simpleDateFormat.format(date)+ anotherFile.getName();

Hi;<br />
<br />
I am trying to convert a Java application which is implemented in Java1.7 to 1.6<br />
This works fine in 1.7<br />

<pre><code id="code-10-28505463-1">File aFile = anotherfile.toPath().getParent().resolve(newname).toFile()</code></pre>
<br />
but toPath() is not recognized in 1.6<br />
<br />
Any fast solution that is compatible with 1.6?<br />
<br />
Regards.

File aFile = anotherfile.toPath().getParent().resolve(newname).toFile(); to Java 1.6

Java is a platform-independent, object-oriented programming language and run-time environment, designed to have as few implementation dependencies as possible such that developers can write one set of code across all platforms using libraries. Most devices will not run Java natively, and require a run-time component to be installed in order to execute a Java program.
